\u00a0We had a Borough Market suggestion on Thursday and we are happy to do that route when we are ready for that mileage (in just another week or two!).<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><strong>This Week<\/strong><\/div>\n<div>Big day on Thursday &#8211; 60 minutes, no walk breaks. \u00a0But there will be plenty of little stops for lights and such so no worries! \u00a0Plus after last week\u2019s run, we are more than confident this will be a walk (run?) in the park for you. \u00a0Regent\u2019s Park, that is. \u00a0Here is the route for Thursday:<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div id=\"ecxyui_3_16_0_1_1452338313814_37643\" dir=\"ltr\">Start down St John&#8217;s Wood Terrace to Townsend, go left on Townsend, right on Acacia, and left on Avenue. \u00a0Cross Avenue and head down Ellsworthy, turning right to enter Primrose Hill. \u00a0Run diagonally across Primrose, exiting at Regent&#8217;s Park Road. \u00a0Follow Regent&#8217;s Park Rd, crossing the bridge and veering right, until it ends at Chalk Farm. \u00a0Take a right and run down Chalk Farm past the Camden tube station, then go right on Parkway to the Outer Circle. \u00a0Go left on the Outer Circle then right on Chester Road to the Inner Circle. \u00a0Go counterclockwise about 2\/3rds of the way around and exit at York Bridge. \u00a0Take the Outer Circle to the right, exit at Charlbert, and head down Prince Albert Road to the churchyard for stretching.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"ecx35B75812-1B83-4AC3-A814-37207CCB2B06\" class=\"Apple-web-attachment-container\" src=\"cid:c3aa3a22-6ce3-ad44-bdce-4fc6180aa27c@yahoo.com\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2016-01-09 at 1.13.02 PM.png\" \/><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<\/div>\n<div>And since we didn\u2019t manage to get the route out before the run last Thursday, I thought I\u2019d add it in here so you have it if you want it:<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Run down Circus\/Hall Rd, right on Hamilton Terrace, left on Abercorn which becomes Elgin. \u00a0We take Elgin all the way to the end, cross at the big intersection and go over the over pass, run past the Westbourne Park tube, and take a right on Westbourne Park Road. \u00a0We go left on Ledbury, left on Westbourne Grove, and take the canal home.<\/div>\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"ecx6898F7DD-A1C8-447A-A5B4-B10880BD7DC8\" class=\"Apple-web-attachment-container\" src=\"cid:a1e3c062-b23c-e74c-a79a-446dfe87c4f1@yahoo.com\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2016-01-05 at 1.11.33 PM.png\" \/><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>See you on Thursday!<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What a fun evening it was on Thursday!
